Indeed it is shameful act when humanitarian aid convoy is bombed. Either the Russians or the Syrians are suspected of such a dastardly
deed in Aleppo. However, two wrongs never make a right.

The US Senate voted to allow the $1.15bn sale of military
equipment to Saudi Arabia amid the country’s ongoing conflict with Yemen. Saudi
Arabia will receive more than 130 Abrams battle tanks, 20 armoured recovery
vehicles, and other military equipment.

The announcement comes after US-backed Saudi coalition
bombed a children’s school, a Doctors Without Borders hospital, and destroyed a
bridge humanitarian aid groups to bring supplies into Yemen’s capital, Sana’a.
